Baked beans for 150, meatballs for 200 and chicken cordon bleu for 50 are among the more unique entries in a new cookbook.
Twenty Years of Treasured Memories, compiled by the Alberta Royal Purple Lodges Society, contains recipes from appetizers and beverages to squares, breads and loaves and includes a section on catering and large group cooking.
The 198 page coil-ringed book also features cooking and baking tips.
Proceeds from the book, which sells for $15, will support the group’s charity work with organizations that include Ronald McDonald House and Alberta’s children’s hospitals.
The cookbook draws on the society’s extensive work in catering fall suppers in Alberta. It was created to mark the group’s 20th anniversary in the province.
Once serving as a women’s auxiliary to the Elks service club, the group is now an incorporated and independent society that includes both male and female members.
